Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

From email:  Czech (ca), Irish (ga-IE), Magyar (hu), Korean (ko), Brazillian Portuguese (pt-BR), Portuguese (pt-PT), Romanian (ro), Ukranian (uk) are mostly affected here. 


From IRC: gueroJeff> mfinkle: I've been approving sign-offs that contain those localizations on Beta today. pt-PT, for example, was just approved and has those strings localized

We'll use this bug to keep a relnote on 26 Beta regarding known issue with some locales not being complete but keep picking up new l10n changesets throughout Beta to increase the completion of this localization while on Beta.

Should we refresh the notes for beta 1 to include this?

This is in the Known Issues section of the notes, I'm not sure why Lucas removed the flag (please don't do that, we set them according to what's in our relnotes db).

We really ought to put very visible known issues directly written on Google Play and not hidden at the bottom of release-notes but that's another story

Comment 5

[Erin Lancaster [:elan]]

thank you! the removal of the flag was likely a triage snafu...

Comment 6

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Is Beta 2 in a better state? If so, this can be resolved.

Comment 7

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

(oh we didn't set a target candidate, nm)

Comment 8

[Axel Hecht [:Pike]]

I expect beta 2 to be in a much better shape. AFAICT, only ga-IE, ro, and uk are open at this point.

Comment 9

[Lukas Blakk [:lsblakk] use ?needinfo]

Let's keep this open until all the listed locales are up to snuff.

that should be directed to Jesse Montano who is managing the Play Store copy - Jesse can you update the What's New for Firefox 26 Beta?
